  •  
    This article gave me information on healthcare from a perspective of the people living at the poverty level. It focuses on how different strategies and projects made directly to change the affect of this healthcare system in its current status.
  •  
    This article does well in representing how complicated poverty is. I liked how the authors showed how health care is a cause of poverty, and poor health care is also a sign of poverty. It goes to show the dual nature of many social issues and why solutions are increasingly challenging. The solutions offered by the authors look like they would be effective, but executing them might be difficult. It would be hard because these solutions are very general, and they would cost money as many of them require the government to force the cost of healthcare down.

  •  
    This article provides key facts about the COVID 19 Vaccine among healthcare workers. It allows the reader to get a good understanding of Federal and State regulations, advantages and disadvantages of a mandate, as well as alternatives that can be taken.
  •  
    When I first read this article, I was worried about finding a very biased political perspective. On the contrary, this article was very neutral and explained the advantages and disadvantages of a vaccine mandate for Health Care Workers. The article explained how if countries allowed the mandate, then patients and visitors will be much safer. The mandate, though, can be immoral and hinder personal autonomy.
  •  
    This article is very informative and enlightening. I like that is explained the advantages and disadvantages on mandates without any bias. I definitely learned some new things and finished reading it without any questions unanswered.

  •  
    The Department of Justice has announced an update regarding fraudulent unemployment schemes across the nation using COVID 19 as a primary reason. Many financial aid programs for unemployment have been the targets of this issue with scammers milking the benefits that are provided from them. Action has been executed to ensure the protection of these programs and will hold accountable defendants who have been caught being involved of these schemes. The more unemployment fraud makes its way across the nation, even globally, it makes it difficult to provide assistance to people or businesses who are truly in need of the help.

    The author takes a third person perspective on the topic, and seems to provide many technical details about the idea of a TWR reactor. The Traveling Wave reactor seems to be an answer to finding clean power (does not release greenhouse gases) and it runs on depleted Uranium. It is a nuclear reactor being developed by TerraPower which is a startup energy company helped by the Bill and Melinda Foundation. While the author does seem to write from a unbiased perspective, they seem to support the development of this reactor.

It states that no immigrant will be detained or arrested when getting vaccinated and / or needing emergency assistance. It shows how people and government agencies are working together to fight the pandemic.
  •  
    This article is very heart-warming, as it describes how the authorities will not arrest illegal immigrants at vaccine drives. The authors do raise the question about what happens to illegal immigrants after receiving the vaccine. The U.S. has a history of mishandling Immigration. COVID only complicates the situation.

How Poverty Leads to Social Injustice - 0 views

  •  
    This article talks about how closely linked poverty and social justice are. Those living in poverty are in their situation because that have not had equal access and opportunity. The best way to alleviate poverty is to focus on providing equal opportunity to everyone.
  •  
    I agree with statements made in the article about the inequalities that people who live in poverty suffer. Much of this social issue has to do a lot with race and legal status which often times determines eligibility for many programs that should be helping those in need. There is an overwhelming population over looked and discriminated against, adding more fuel to the fire. The number of people affected by poverty is concerning as there should be no reason that they are not receiving the help they need. Very informative article about the subject.
  •  
    I also agree how there are inequalities for people that are in poverty just because of their race and legal status also how it determines they are eligiliable for healthcare, and etc.

  •  
    This is a great government website full of material on worker rights. Also this has information on work harassment and (ADEA) The Age Discrimination in Employment Act.
  •  
    I was researching articles on ageism and this falls right into place with it. I did not about the specific age number that the Age Discrimination Employment Act pertains too so this information was very insightful.

    I did not know much about age discrimination so this website was very informative. This is a good site to refer to if you need to uncover any information on the topic.
